This sounds like a genuine apology and I think people should be able to eventually stop paying for their misdeeds. However, you say yourself that you got off easy at the time. What do you think proper restitution looks like?

idk, "prisons/police are bad" and "this person doesn't deserve a platform" seem perfectly compatible to me. Platforms are a privilege, not a right.

In conclusion, Sue Donym is a land of contrasts.

it's weird to see people, especially anticarceral leftists, suggest that someone who does a bad thing should atone themselves of it by permanently removing themselves from public life, and that the public should shun them forever.

At any rate, I'm profoundly distraught about this and I can only hope the victim is doing well in the years since.

This is the fairest take possible I think. I respect Jacob for owning up to his mistakes here, but I wouldn’t blame anyone for not wanting to engage with his content ever again. Yes, people do grow and change, but nobody is owed a platform. Also, I really hope the victim doesn’t get outed.
